About Adam Guise-Smith

I live in the Algarve all year round and I have been here since 2006 but I am originally from Sheffield in the UK.

I sell real estate all over the Algarve.

Adam Guise-Smith purchased this apartment in 2008

Why Adam Guise-Smith chose Albufeira

I bought this apartment to live in, and i furnished it to be my home. Since then I have started a family and we keep this property as our holiday home and rent it out for most of the year,.

I choose this apartment it is walking distance to the strip, but not right on top of it! Also, to one beach in five minutes and another two beaches in about 10-15 mins. I also used to walk to the old town, which takes about 20-30 mins. You can catch the bus at the top of the road, or the tourist train, if you don´t fancy walking.

You genuinely don´t need a car if you rent my apartment.

Guestbook comments from the manager

Hi Coral:

We are back from vacation, we have been very good in your apartment in Albufeira.

All very right: the pool, the house, the location: quiet but central, to hand everything you need.

The Algarve is beautiful with varied landscape and with a very good climate.

Relaxing, lovely holiday.

Just had 2 weeks with 2 teenage girls in a beautiful spacious apartment.Very central location to shops , beach and the strip, where there is a large number of restaurants.The apartment is well kept , in a quiet area and is very secure.On the whole this was a wonderful relaxing holiday with enough to entertain tennage girls.Thoroughly enjoyed it. 5 star rating from us.

Excellent apartment you won't be disappointed

As soon as we booked this spartment Adam the owner was a true professional.. Answering our questions ensuring all our needs were met. Even arranged our transfer. Adam was do accommodating even when easy jet went on strike he offered alternative day for us to come to avoid the Strike delay. The accommodation is tastefully decorated excellent furniture and excellent swimming pool . When we come back to Portugal Adams place will be our first choice . Nothin was to much trouble and we would recommend .

Super property - really enjoyable break

Stayed here October 2014 and had a super time. High quality accommodation which was in tip top condition just as the listing described. It's in a superb location with beach and good restaurants within 5 mins walk. Car parking and pool facilities were also first class. Adam the owner was a joy to deal with and we shall certainly be staying here again.

A fantastic holiday!!!

I have worked in the travel industry for 25 years and have stayed in hundreds of apartments but this has to be the best by far, we really enjoyed our stay. It had everything we needed with all the home comforts you could think of. Location was great pool was lovely grounds were lovely !! Normally after 2 weeks were ready to come home but we just didn't want to leave . We will definitely be back and will be recommending this apartment!!

Lovely spacious luxury apartment.

Stayed in this apartment in June and had a great time. The bedrooms are larger than most apartments and the ensuite in master bedroom has a wonderful double shower with jets (fantastic). Everything you need in this apartment. No need to pack books there are plenty to choose from. Restaurants very close by and supermarket just at top of road. Larger supermarkets within walking distance or use taxi rank at top of street. Taxi was 4.75 euro to old town. Pool and garden are spotless and maintained to a high standard. We spent all day lying by pool and often had the complex to ourselves. Quiet and peaceful (bliss). Apartment has 4 sunbeds so even if busy no need to get up early for a sunbed. Sun on balcony all afternoon, another bonus. For those that want the beach there is a lovely small beach at bottom of street, directions in apartment. Everything you could need or want is close by. Would highly recommend this apartment - great for families or couples. Very secure complex. Booking was very easy and Coral is lovely. Spoke on the phone and she answered all queries I had. Although it is her sons apartment Coral deals with the booking and she could not be more helpful. She knows the area and can advise you on distances and local facilities. All details were sent promptly and payment very easy. We were given contact numbers for both Coral and her son who lives in Portugal should we have any problems but we did not need to use them. Safety deposit returned with no bother. What more can I say I would use this apartment again and highly recommend it.

This apartment offers a great location for anyone looking to have a simple no worries holiday. It is walking distance to everything a holiday maker could want. The beach is at the bottom of the road and the Albufeira strip is at the top. There are loads of restaurants and shops nearby along with supermarkets and walking to the old town takes 10 minutes along the beach. Most of the residents and holiday makers don’t even bother with the expense of renting a car when they come over, as there is a regular bus route nearby and a busy taxi rank. The airport is 20 minutes drive
